Stop overthinking. Apple Intelligence on your iPhone helps you notice a distorted thought, name the pattern yourself, and see three balanced reframes. Private. No subscription. Reframe is a focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) thought-record app. Whenever a thought loops in your head — "I bombed that interview," "They must be angry at me," "I'm a terrible parent" — Reframe walks you through 90 seconds: 1. Describe what happened (one line) 2. Write the thought 3. Tag the feeling and its intensity 4. Pick the thinking pattern behind it, from 10 well-studied options 5. See three alternative perspectives, generated by Apple Intelligence 6. Save, and compare how you feel after THE PRIVACY PROMISE Your thoughts never leave your iPhone. Reframe uses Apple's Foundation Models framework, which runs the AI entirely on your device. No cloud. No account. No tracking. No data collected, even anonymously. THE 10 THINKING PATTERNS Based on Dr. David Burns' cognitive distortions model, Reframe shows you 10 clearly explained patterns with examples — All-or-Nothing, Always/Never, Blowing It Up, Jumping to Conclusions, Labeling, Should/Must, It Must Be Me, Mental Filter, Feelings as Facts, and Discounting the Positive. You pick the one that fits. Over time, you'll spot them in your own thinking without opening the app. ONE-TIME PURCHASE $14.99 once, lifetime access. No subscription. No in-app purchases. All future updates included. REQUIRES • iPhone 15 Pro or later (Apple Intelligence required) • iOS 26 or later NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE Reframe is a self-reflection tool, not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment.
